and been getting away with it for decades. The very rich almost never go to jail for their crimes.
If the Bidens committed crimes, they should get whatever punishment the crime calls for.
Same for Trump although the GOP never want their own held accountable regardless of their crimes.Comment -

It appears to be a thing now on the right to cut video clips to make VP Harris sound like an inarticulate idiot.
Classic example of trying to hit an opponent’s strong suits. Love her or hate her, she is one of the smartest and most articulate politicians we’ve ever had.Comment -
That would be like someone saying you are one of the smartest and most articulate posters ever. Its laughable and no one would believe it.
Kamala is an idiot. She slept her way into politics. She is one of the dumbest politicians to ever enter politics. She polled at less than 1% when running for president and was only hired by the corrupt senile Biden because she had a vagina and is Black. There are literally tens of millions of people who fit that description which would be more suitable for VP than Kamala. Don Lemon comes to mind. He might not be any smarter but he can put a sentence together.Comment -

The circus clown always draws an audience. Mainly the media so they can see what goofy stuff comes out of that brainless mouth.
That is 1 dumb woman.Comment -

Dems keep attacking Trump legally in the one tier justice system. Dems just won't quit trying to attack the Don. I think it's only gonna make him stronger. All these indictments are such petty hog wash!
Mean while Hunter and pops Joey are gonna walk free with the new drafted sweat heart deal coming up next. Like Hillary Clinton the Biden's hold the same get out of jail free card still.
Banana Republic!Comment -
Inflation is down to 2.97% but prices are still higher than they should be.
The leading driver of high prices was not inflation, but corporate price gouging.
And corporations fund politicians to prevent accountability. That is the problem we face.Comment -

Oh Dwight, Dwight, Dwight... Living in your quaint little hut in the middle of nowhere, you've seemingly mastered the art of fabricating tales as shaky as your dwelling on a windy day. Now, don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with a good old fashioned hut, but when it comes to crafting well-informed arguments, you seem to be as lost as a mosquito in a nudist colony.
You seem to believe that being articulate and smart is as laughable as your attempt to discredit Kamala Harris. Yet, here you are, serving up a hearty plate of falsehoods like a shoddy chef in a third-rate diner. Harris is an idiot, you say? Slept her way into politics? Your claims, dear Dwight, hold as much water as a sieve trying to carry the ocean.
And your take on Biden's choice of her as Vice President - you'd make a conspiracy theorist blush. She was chosen for more than her gender or ethnicity, Dwight. It's called experience and capability, two things you seem to lack when it comes to making a sensible argument.
Don Lemon, you say? Ah yes, let's just pick a random name out of a hat because you can't put a sentence together. With that logic, I'm sure a parrot with a good vocabulary would seem like a viable candidate to you.
Frankly, Dwight, your ability to spew nonsense is as impressive as your inability to grasp basic facts. But then, maybe it's easier to lie and smear than to actually engage with reality. So, I eagerly await your next nugget of 'wisdom'. If nothing else, it's like watching a chimpanzee trying to do algebra - utterly misguided, but certainly entertaining.Comment -
So she didn't sleep with Willie Brown?
Former San Francisco mayor Willie Brown broke his silence on his relationship with Democratic senator Kamala Harris on Saturday, admitting in his weekly column that he used his powerful post to boost her young career when they dated.
Dwight has schooled you again. As have i.Comment -
Like a mole squinting at the sun, convinced it's seen the whole universe. Yes, it must be so much easier to throw out childish one-liners than to put in the effort to understand the nuances of politics and leadership. But then again, why should you bother when you've got such brilliant insights!
I can only imagine your Mom, her pride swelling as you regurgitate opinions spoon-fed to you by Fox News pundits, safe in your tin can castle. It's as if you've become the Don Quixote of trailer parks, gallantly tilting at windmills as you try to pass off your embittered sarcasm as astute political commentary.Comment -
Where's the debunked part of that fact, Greggy?

How DOJ, Hunter Biden lawyers tried to force judge’s hand in plea hearing
Hunter Biden’s defense team and federal prosecutors tried to slip the first son’s wrist-slap plea deal past a Delaware federal judge Wednesday, only to see their plan unravel when the jurist called out the agreement as flawed — and possibly unconstitutional.
Hunter, 53, was poised to admit to two misdemeanor counts of willful failure to pay federal income taxes and enter a diversionary program on a felony weapons charge.
However, near the end of the diversionary agreement was a paragraph reading, in part, “The United States agrees not to criminally prosecute Biden, outside of the terms of this Agreement, for any federal crimes” committed by the first son for which the statute of limitations had not already expired.
One problem: Diversions are granted at prosecutors’ sole discretion. They’re a pledge not to prosecute a specific crime — in this case, Hunter Biden’s gun charge — if the defendant meets certain conditions.
While judges have authority to accept or reject plea deals, they often do not have a say in diversion agreements. US District Judge Maryellen Noreika smelled a rat, complaining that she was not given a copy of the crucial paragraph until just before the hearing began.
“Are you relying on that promise in connection with your agreement to accept the Memorandum of Plea Agreement and plead guilty?” Noreika asked Hunter, who responded: “Yes, your honor.”
“If that provision were not valid or not enforceable, would you accept [the agreement]?” the judge followed up, to which Hunter answered: “No, your honor.”
Moments later, Noreika noted the diversionary agreement did not include a space for her signature, while the plea deal for the tax misdemeanors did.
“You’re saying I don’t even get to accept [the diversion agreement], I guess I’m supposed to rubber-stamp it,” Noreika said. “I am concerned that you’re taking provisions out of the agreement, of a plea agreement that would normally be in there.”
“She was basically caught on the fly here having to say, ‘Well, let’s talk about what this is all about.’ And it became clear that it was not properly thought out,” Paul Kamenar, counsel to the National Legal and Policy Center, told The Post.
Noreika made prosecutor Leo Wise the focus of her ire, asking at one point: “Do you have any precedent for agreeing not to prosecute crimes that have nothing to do with the case or the charges being diverted?”
“I’m not aware of any, your honor,” Wise conceded.
Moments later, Noreika blew a massive hole in the deal.
“To the extent that the agreement not to prosecute is promised, do the parties have some understanding what the scope of that agreement is?” she asked Wise.
“Yes, your honor,” he said.
“No, tell me, like specifically what does it include,” Noreika pressed. “You said that there is an investigation, I don’t know what that is, but you must know that if there are particular charges that could be brought based on the facts that are there.”
“I can tell you what I think we can’t charge. I can’t tell you what the ongoing investigation is,” Wise deflected. “So, for instance, I think based on the terms of the agreement, we cannot bring tax evasion charges for the years described in the factual statement to the plea agreement. And I think we cannot bring for the firearms charges based on the firearm identified in the factual statement to the Diversion Agreement.”
“Could the government bring a charge under the Foreign Agents Registration Act?” asked the judge, alluding to what appears to be a federal probe pertaining to the younger Biden’s overseas dealings.
“Yes,” Wise admitted.
Defense lawyer Chris Clark then made a stunning remark: “As stated by the government just now, I don’t agree with what the government said.”
“I mean, these are contracts,” Noreika said. “To be enforceable, there has to be a meeting of the minds. So what do we do now?”
“Then there is no deal,” Wise said.
“As far as I’m concerned, the plea agreement is null and void,” agreed Clark, who hadindicated last month he wouldn’t be inclined to accept a deal knowing that additional charges could be forthcoming.
Federal investigators have long made it clear that the first son is still facing an ongoing investigation.
Even as the deal went down in flames, Noreika continued ripping it apart, raising concerns that she would be the one tasked with determining whether Hunter Biden violated the terms of his pretrial diversion agreement, such as a commitment to remain sober.
“I’m concerned that that provision makes me a gatekeeper to criminal charges and puts me in the middle of a decision as to whether to bring a charge,” she said. “That choice as to whether to bring charges is not — that’s the executive branch, not the judicial branch, so is this even constitutional?”
Multiple legal experts commended Noreika’s dissection of the agreement.

Next time someone doubts the leadership style and communication skills of @VP , just show them this master class.
Everyone forgets that she beat Mike Pence, who was at the time considered the strong half of that ticket who would help get them back in the game, at their debate.
If she ever has to go up against Ron "Pudding King" DeSantis, she'll body him as well.Comment -
